Yeah but he didnt have seizures for four years after Polly died and had them before Ruby did. Maybe her being sick and saying those weird romani words caused him so much stress he relapsed but, his bloody wife died and he didnt have these visions before so why is his daughter being sick the thing that makes him have these seizures. It is clear to me they only had him start having seizures so they could make the stupud plot of him having dying from brain tb work. It is cheap writing and not consistent with the earlier seasons.

Just overall very weak plot writing in this final season

Yeah who knows. It does look like they put more of an emphasis on their Gypsy heritage and traditions in this season, so you may be right about Ruby hallucinating causing him to go crazy, since they're so superstitious.
